ANY new speed tricks out there for the ZX14???

So just wondering if there is any new speed tricks out there besides turbo's, major engine work etc. Got the Brock's, pc and flies out. Just lookin to keep busy with the bike over this winter and seeing if there is any simple projects like what i've done so far.

Lose any unwanted weight (the bike and you) Maybe some ceramic wheel bearings.. Better flowing air filter.....Lighter wheels ....Better fuel .... Switch to a lighter weight syn oil....Get some mirror block offs....A double bubble wind screen maybe a help , that something that has not been proven yet but you never know till you try .. Smokin..

Simple stuff? try a race seat, swing-arm extrensions and lower the ride height. You should launch harder and be more aerodynamic.

.....and what the other guy's said, unless you're already built like the proverbial racing snake, lose weight.

Wherever you want - it has a long cable.....mine is under the seat next to the front fusebox.

I am using 16/43 and it's impossible to keep the front down......
